Biographie
Prof. C. Copéret was trained in chemistry and chemical engineering in CPE Lyon and then undertook a PhD in chemistry at Purdue University (USA) under the supervision of Prof. Negishi (1996). After a postdoctoral stay in the group of Prof. Sharpless, he joined C2P2 (at the time LCOMS) as a CNRS researcher in 1998 and was promoted CNRS Research Director in 2008. Since 2010, he is Professor at the Department of Chemistry at ETH Zürich. His research interest lies at the interface of molecular, material and surface chemistry with applications in catalysis, energy, imaging and microelectronics, and his work relies on the combination of advanced spectroscopic methods like Surface Enhanced NMR Spectroscopy and computational chemistry.
